Books a Million is Houma's premiere new bookstore. They have all titles sorted by authors and titles and if you have a discount card, those purchases are at 10% discount.
I have needed a certain book for classes and Books A Million has ordered the book and had it in the store within three days. I hate to pay this much for books, but at times the urge is killing me or the class requirements are so strict that I couldn't get the professor to bend.
Books A Million can also be shopped to find that perfect gift. If a book just isn't appropriate for the gift, try calendars, book marks, magazines, train items, or even a gift card to the coffee shop.
thanks,
stephanie

My husband needed a nice dress suit for our wedding, but going out and buy one was not going to be a wise decision. So we rented one from Norman's Tuxedo.
For under 70 bucks he got everything including the shirt, cufflings, the suit and the shoes. My husband had to get his own socks, t-shirt, and show up.
The service he recieved from this company was unsurpassed to any other tuxedo place we have ever had to deal with and i highly recommend this company.
Norman's also deals with other bridal shoppes for suit rentals and the service recieved there is just as good where suits are concerned.
PROS: Quality merchandise for a low price, complete suit with accessories
CONS: nothing

Mom and I swung by Vicki's the other day to pick up her embroidered shirts for work and I was just browsing.
Ms. Vicki has the Halloween embroidered items out in full swing, including sweats, t-shirts, trick or treat bags, even cute little jumpers for the babies in your life. How cute to have a "baby's 1st Halloween" shirt to remember the season by.
To me, the items seemed reasonable priced, and since Ms. Vicki has been doing embroidery for many years, you know you are getting quality with each item. She also has items for all schools, gym bags, cheerleading bags, purses, and she does embroidery for businesses.
Check out Ms. Vicki at Ms. Vicki's embroidery and let her help you with all of your embroidery needs, no matter the season.
Peace,
Nola

My youngest daughter struggles with her education, to the point of being a couple of years behind in school. During the summer to prevent her from regressing in the material she has learned at school, I try and provide her with materials that are educational yet fun.
Lee's Educational center offers such items. Whether I am interested in workbooks, number line posters, puzzles, books, or paints and markers for her quiet time activities, Lee's has it all. They are located on West 7th street, out the way from all the hussle and bussle of the busier side of town, yet not far off the beaten path to somewhere I am on my way to.
Granted the prices at Lee's can often be beat by going to Walmart, but the individualized service each customer needs, making sure all of the needs are filled and items are found, far surpasses the service from the large chain stores, and it's done without having to fight crowds.

My oldest son played football for our parish rec dept, now my youngest boy is playing. The rec dept has a 10.00 sign up fee so not being able to afford the sign up fee, I know other areas are like 50.00-60.00 for one season.
For that 10.00 each kid recieves a jersey, and pads, the parents are to supply the shoes, socks, pants, and the pants pads.
And the best part of the program is the motto is not about the winning score, it's that every child plays and feels that he's a part of the team.
The rec dept also offers girls to cheerlead for the games for the same great 10.00 price and they have the cheer uniform provided.
Practices for both boys and girls are held at the park closest to the home team area several times a week starting in late july. The last game is played in mid november, and the games are played on Saturday at the Soutdown School stadium off of Lafayette st. in Houma, LA
thanks,

My two brothers and I were participates with the Terrebonne Parish 4H, through our school systems. I must tell you that Shaney Hill, the director of the 4H organization for Terrebonne Parish is wonderful. Within the 4H program, all children are equal. The grades they recieve in school are irrelevant to thier 4H projects, any disabilities are also unnoticed.
We have competed in cooking contests, animal showings, and sewing contests, winning trophies along the way. Even if the child can not make it to compete at shows, they are given points for simply completing thier 4H booklet on time, completely filled in.
Now my kid sister is a 4Her and she loves it. They had a 4H extravaganza at school saturday and she's still talking about it. It was basically a fun-day with games, activities and raffles to win.
The booklets range from getting to know the community to more specialist projects like sewing or animal rearing.
The camps during summer are awesome and keep from the 4th graders all the way through seniors in high school busy and happy.
If your child is ever given the chance to be a part of 4H please consider it, this is an opportunity that will grow with them forever. The challenges they learn and conquer in 4H will make them better persons all around.

Tiger tyme is a store in the Winn Dixie plaza on Lafayette st in Houma. The store is located in the far corner, kinda hard to find, but well worth the efforts.
This store is stocked with all the goodies to support LSU tigers. From baby sized cheerleader outfits, to water bottles, to license plates, to mini LSU football uniforms and footballs, if the item has LSU tigers on the item, it can be found in this store.
Tiger Tyme only carries items which are licensed by the NCAA official site, so they items are a little more expensive, but the quality of the item outweighs those extra couple of bucks the items cost. If you have an LSU fan in your life, tiger tyme is the place to shop.
thanks,

Academy has great shoe selection and in the weekly sales paper there is a section of shoes on sale. I have found several great pairs of shoes at Academy. In fact, I picked up my youngest daughter 2 pairs of Adidas at Christmas last year, for ten bucks a pair. This is even cheaper than walmart.
My husband and son go to Academy for rubber boots and hunting boots as well, a wide selection at the most affordable prices around.
When I needed steel toe boots for work, I searched all over town, from Wal-mart all the way to the boot shops where prices go into the hundreds. Finally I had the bright idea of Academy. There was about 10 pairs of boots there for woman, prices starting at 20 bucks. I did buy my work boots at Academy, 4 months ago and have been very pleased.
Thanks,
Stephanie
